Hey bro it's me, yeah a compression test can help see if your head gasket is sealing up.Just stick it out and if you do all of the work yourself, it shouldn't cost too awful much to get the thing in driving conditions! I know these things are a pain in the ass trust me I am almost wanting...
I am having the same problems, everyone keeps giving me the run around.. So my inspection is out of date but I drive with all my paperwork from the shops and my EPA paperwork to explain my situation and to show I am trying to take care of it..
Getting it back from the shop running like a champ!! =).This car amazes me just driving it the way it feels, looks and everything!
Everybody around me just thinks its another car but it is far from that,
in my eyes it is Mitsubishi's finest car ever made...
I skipped 2 teeth on mine and did zero dammage.I retimed it, put on a new throttle body,sparkplugs&wires with a new front o2 sensor, Runs and idles like a brand new car.. Also has 170,000 miles on it.So there is a chance it is totally fine.
Crushed 1g FTW. Here is like half throttle leaving my house.YouTube - VID00078.For me I love it. Has an authentic sound that you can tell isn't just a bell and whistle. It is a legit sound of air being blown out not a pinging, squeeling, snorting etc. noise.
My 2g is at 168k. Ran really good for a while.Now it is leaking PS fluid, and refuses to idle without shaking crazily.
Time to get this bad boy in the shop. It is a beautiful car.
Yeah I knew absolutely nothing when I first got first DSM. A year later I was doing timing belts, water pumps, alternators, and a boat load of other things!!
I have pretty much all of the above wrong with mine to some extent.. It is in the shop right now =P.. But I still daily it and fix it as I go. Love the damn car. It is worth it.Mine has 169k on it original bottom end =).
Keep it. Trust me. I sold my first 1g TSI AWD that I put a lot of blood sweat and tears into. Needless to say 1 year later I saved up all my paychecks for my current 2gb.I will never get rid of this car no matter how much it falls apart on me!Just drive it like you would a geo metro and it...
I had a problem like this. The guy signed me over the title but everytime I tried to get a bill of sale from the guy he would start flaking out and shit. So I just filed for a lost bill of sale. 3 weeks later I now have a title in my name. Personally I think the guy just was trying to get his...
This is it right here.I have had 1g and 2g both turbo and I will tell you right now the 2g pulls harder stock for stock.. Also the T25 boost extremely smooth...but still sucks.
Man you have to hang on to this thing. Once you get your feet wet you will be hooked I promise..If my motor blew up today I would do whatever it took for it to see the road again.
yeah most people don't realize that boss wheels = $$$ and they say they look cheap it's funny.Black wheels are so played out now id almost rather not have them like everyone else and their cousin.People just hate on chrome because everybody else does in my opinion.
Actually, everyone who sees the car says they like the wheels the most... So to the average person they must be appealing. But yeah I would like to get some new ones but other things come first. Needs new window tint also.I don't mind the wheels myself.
I felt the exact same way about my 2g GST I just bought.100% stock and virgin black GST only thing changed on it were bigger wheels.Car is completely sick and if it would have slipped away I would have had to give up on DSMs..Though I already fixed a leaky rad hose and the valve cover...
Yeah I know what you mean about having a non modded car.I kind of regret ruining my 1g and this new 2g I have is completely unmolested but man would it look good with a cat back on it.
Alright well I had a coolant leak coming from where the lower radiator hose connects to the motor (Thermostat housing I do believe is the area it connects too).Well I got a new clamp around that and I believe I got that fixed. But in the mist of me trying to yank the radiator hose on tighter I...
Haha yeah, I did launch it a few times once was against my friends GST and I owned him, I was gone by the time he stopped burning his tires. Was fun haha.But cars are hard to find in black so GST or X I was nabbing the first clean one I could find.
Why what is so wrong with them?They are boss 17" wrapped in brand new tires...They aren't cheap wheels by any means.Everywhere I go people love them so Idk...I happen to really like them and the way they make the car sit.And I went GST because this car is my DD and will remain stock...
